I took a look at ebgames yesterday... $100 :/
However, are there any issues in terms of highping when playing on NA or Asia servers from Australia?
Cheers

Korean server is best for both, I exclusively play on Korea now. You lose having native English language for everything, but with a relocaliser, you only miss out on a bunch of text that you can figure out what it says by yourself easy enough. Not everyone's cup of tea, but if you're buying an account and all you care about is playing StarCraft, then go Korean. It's also way cheaper (full Taiwan account is $38ish I think? Taiwan client connects to Korean server) | ||

Re Korean account I thought it was hard to get one unless you were Korean? Taiwan may be easier though. | ||

A friend of mine will borrow me his NA account. Can I play there with my SEA client? PS: I'm from Australia | ||

If you don't know how to do that: 1) search for "cmd" on pc, then open it 2) type "tracert us.battle.net" and hit enter. 3) ignore the first few pings but the later ones should all be generally around the same range if you have stable net and will give you an idea of your ping. Oh also sc2sea.com or mwave.com are both the best places to buy from Australia. | ||

Yes, I purchased an NA key from OffGamers and it worked perfectly. | ||

When there's only a thousand games or so going on in SEA, I'll usually just switch to NA for that session. | ||

It's nice if you wanna play a Bo7 against someone, at slow hours it's common to just hit the same guy over and over. He's beaten me 3 times...I guess I'll watch the replay and he'll get matched against someone else...a few minutes later, find match, there he is again...guess I'll cheese. | ||

That can be a good thing if you're testing out a build. Occasionally I hit the same guy a few games in a row and try to do the same build again to see if it's strong or just unexpected. | ||
